Jurisprudence of Acts of Worship

Islam is built on five

If I were to pray the obligatory prayers, fast Ramadan, adopt the lawful, as lawful and adopt the unlawful as unlawful

Purity is half of faith, al-hamdulillāh (praise be to Allah) fills the Scale, and subhānallāh wa al-hamdulillāh (glory and praise be to Allah) fills what is between the heavens and the earth

Whoever performs Hajj without engaging in rafath (sexual relations or obscene speech) or sinning will return like the day his mother gave birth to him

No prayer should be offered in the presence of food or when he is resisting the need to relieve himself of the two filths

If you say to your companion 'listen' on Friday while the Imām is delivering the sermon, you have thus engaged in idle talk

Five are acts of Fitrah (natural disposition): circumcision, shaving the pubic hair, trimming the mustache, clipping the nails, and plucking the armpit hair

Trim the mustaches and let the beards grow

If anyone performs ablution like this ablution of mine and offers two Rak'ahs during which he does not think of anything else, Allah will forgive his past sins

O Allah, do not make my grave an idol that is worshiped

The most burdensome prayers for the hypocrites are the ‘Ishā’ and Fajr prayers. If they were to know the virtue of them, they would come to them, even if they had to crawl

Allah does not accept the prayer of any of you who is in the state of Hadath (minor ritual impurity) until he performs ablution

The tooth-stick purifies the mouth and pleases the Lord

The five (daily) prayers, Friday prayer to the next Friday prayer, and Ramadan to the next Ramadan are expiation of the sins committed between them, so long as major sins are avoided

Whoever fasts Ramadan, out of faith and in pursuit of reward, his past sins will be forgiven

Whoever performs Qiyām (night prayer) in the Night of Decree, out of faith and in pursuit of reward, his past sins will be forgiven

Do not curse the dead, for they have reached the result of what they have done

Whoever performs the Fajr prayer is under the protection of Allah

Charity does not diminish wealth, and Allah does not increase a servant, on account of his forgiveness, except in honor, and no one humbles himself seeking the pleasure of Allah except that Allah will elevate him

Allah said: 'O son of Adam, spend, and I will spend on you.'
